| Bob Key's Good, Fast and Cheap Bench |
| The perfect first bench. It appears that Bob Key's website is down, and his e-mail address is no longer active. Given that, Galoot Paul Morin, who downloaded all the material, has created a .pdf of the entire webpage, reformatted for 8 ½ x 11 pages. Until Bob peeks his head above water and says otherwise, this bench plan will be available on Wiktor Kuc's OldToolShop website. |

| Noden Adjust-A-Bench |
| Unique adjustable legs for a workbench so you can vary the height depending on the task. A little spendy, but looks to be a good answer to the old question "How high do I make my bench?" |
